Q: What is
one thing you wish you could tell your favorite author?
My Answer: Well in my case I have two favorites! So here goes…
Dear Alice Hoffman,
I
want to thank you for all the wonderful books you have written that have been
full of magical realism and whimsical and eccentric characters and places. The
first book that I ever picked up by you was Practical
Magic and today I still go back and read it over and over again. It was the
first book that transported me to a place other than the four walls of my
bedroom!
Dear
J.K. Rowling,
Ultimately YOU are the reason why
reading is now a passion of mine! Your books are the sole reminder of my
childhood and one that I hold very dear. Harry and I became close friends and
he often went everywhere that I did. I have read your books so many times that
I cannot even begin to count. You made me see just how far my imagination could
stretch. And you know what I learned? It’s
endless!! I just want to personally thank you for creating a world that I
could have comfort and limitless adventures in at the same time!
Oohh, Hoffman! I loved Practical Magic too. I remember my mom's friend saying we needed to see the movie when it released and putting my foot down until I could read it first. LOL!

Hopping through. have you read Alice Hoffman's The Dovekeepers? I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteMy Hop
I read the Harry Potter books as an adult, but I never once felt like I was reading a kid's book. I think that's a huge part of what makes them so special- they captivate readers of all ages.
